Applications
This appliance is an electric raclette grill,
suitable for low-fat grilling of meat, fi sh and
vegetables, for cheese ‘au gratin’ and for
making crêpes.
Any use other than that described in these
instructions must be considered improper
and may lead to personal injury or material
damage.
Before fi rst use
∙ Remove any packing materials
completely.
∙ Before using the grill for the fi rst time, clean
the reversible grill plate, grill stone and
mini-pans with a damp cloth.
∙ Heat up the appliance with the stone /
plate and mini-pans for about 10 minutes,
without any food, to eliminate the smell
typically encountered when fi rst switching
on a grill (a small amount of smoke may
be noticeable). For that reason, adequate
ventilation should be ensured by opening
windows or balcony doors.
∙ Clean the appliance afterwards as
described in Cleaning and care.
Grill stone

next to the reversible grill plate on the
appliance. Caution:
Avoid placing a
cold stone onto a hot element.
